HELP!!!!!! I'M ON THE COOKIE ROLLER COASTER AND I CAN'T GET OFF......

Double posting today.....I'm on a cookie roll!....Packed up a gift box for a neighbor...then decided to try these...

I like how these present themselves....eye catching, don't you think?
Have you made these before? The origionals have circles cut out in the center...I had these tiny tree cutters...

Any sugar cookie recipe would work...Rasberry Preserves and lots of sifted Powdered sugar...What's not to like!...






This was the first time trying these...I think we have a winner here!...Very tasty! Hope your Monday was right up there!, xoxo~Kathy

  10. Kathy your cookies look just beautiful!

    I hope you don't mind me making a suggestion here on your beautiful blog, but I think it would help if you reduced the number of posts on your home page to 7 or so. As it is now, there are over 250 pics to download before we can see your current post and it takes forever. I love to come and look but sometimes have to leave it's taking so long!

    I know your neighbors loved the cookies! :)

  13. These look positively scrumptious! I would love receiving a box of goodies such as this. No one made me cookies- Either I am unloved or I have friends for whom the art of baking is non-existent... LOL I hope you have a very Happy Holiday Season, Kathy. Big hugs, Sue

  15. Merry Christmas to you all ...
    Sharon...Navbar is Transparent! How do you like it?...
    Betsy...Thanks for bringing that to my attention...I will knock the posts numbers down a little...I find the same thing with the snow widgets on others blogs...really slows the scrolling. There are so many fun things to use on our blogs but the side effects sometimes are just not worth it.
    Lynn...Have fun baking on your day off!

    Merry Christmas dear ones, xoxo~Kathy

  16. It looks great!!! I bet you like it better too.
    Yes I have tryed several wigets and found they really slow things down. The snow is the worst.
    I don't think you have to many post showing. But large pictures can slow things down. But every ones computer is differentin how they see them, so you can't please every one. Just do what works for you.

    It does load slowly though. But you are worth it!! God Bless, Sharon

  17. They are indeed little works of art, Kathy! I haven't baked one cookie this holiday season. Think I'm just lazy or turning in Scrooge...
